The target of the recent Israeli attack on Syria was armed factions affiliated with Iran, Major General Oleg Yegorov, deputy head of the Russian Center for the Reconciliation in Syria, has revealed
“On December 20, between 00:35 and 00:40, four Israeli Air Force F-16 tactical aircraft attacked from the airspace of the Golan Heights military facilities in the governorate of Damascus with guided missiles,” said the officer during a briefing after the attack.
Maj. Gen. Yegorov also said that, upon notification from the Israeli side, the attack was carried out against “pro-Iranian armed factions.”
At least two Syrian service members were wounded in the attack, which targeted military positions in the outskirts of Damascus.
This was the second confirmed Israeli attack on Syria this year. On December 11, a series of strikes hit a key radar base located on the al-Qalib hill in the southeastern countryside of al-Suwayda. Material losses were reported. However, there were no casualties. Israel claimed responsibility for the strikes in leaflets which were dropped over the nearby governorate of al-Quneitra later on the same day.
Following the start of Russian military operations in Syria in 2015, Israel set up a “deconfliction mechanism” with the major power to prevent them clashing inadvertently during Israeli attacks against Iranian deployments and arms transfers in the war-torn country.
Israel escalated its attacks on Syria recently with the aim of countering Iranian military activities there. At least 33 attacks have targeted the country since the start of the year, causing heavy human and material losses. Yet, Iranian-backed factions are still as active as last year.
Israel thinks bombs from above will win wars. It wont.
Look Russia shelling and bombing the whole frontline of Ukraine and they still moving slowly. The whole Zionists deal is really just begging for money for West. “Oh Iran is in Syria they going kill us, give us billions and say nothing.” Ukraine is pissing on Zionists tho, Zionists aren’t the favourite kid anymore, Ukraine took their place and that is why Zionists don’t help and pushing for Trump to take the power in the US.
Oh btw the deep state, and CIA aren’t really happy with Zionists – I wonder if like before Zionists put their nose into the US elections the CIA/deep state going to say something or not. The whole Russia gate was really Zionists and Wahhabis gate.
It does demoralize Iran’s rebels. One day they’ll desert Iran because it cant protect them.
İran sends Afganistan and pakistani solo fighter men to syria. If you kill 1 iran sends 3 men.. if you do again iran send 9 men. This is rule. There is no way out.esrael. Esrareel can go to canada.for ever safe land. But not here. Never!
And what would Iran do when the U.S. continues to target Iran’s top military brains such as Soleimani and many other? Just call a spade a spade. Iran is looking for a way out of this confrontation with Israel and the west. They have dropped more than 1000 bombs on Iranian forces across the Middle East, but Iran has NEVER retaliated directly. If that is not cowardice, I don’t know what is. Believe it or not, the Mullahs are EXTREMELY fearful of war.
Hehhheh. Poorman. You are living in another world maybe. Sleeping deep ?! Wakeup you are in full sensore full hidden media of the West and siyonist. İran take 8 revenge of soleimany. Till now ! And continue… read your centcom amiral commanders dead OR shoot down of us plane such regional cia ceo in Afganistan… deadly 84 men. or….or…or 72 of u.s soldiers in al assad air base in iraq and wounded 117 more… or…or… Read poorman.you are sleeping in West Dreams. Heeheh
Bullshit. You haven’t done a thing to American soldiers except BEG them to vacate some tents in Iraq so you can bomb it and safe face. Had Iran ACTUALLY assassinated U.S. soldiers, America would have directly stroke your forces deep inside Iran. The U.S would have made Syria too hot for your military to continue to stay. Coward nation and leadership, but you won’t stop sticking your noses into other country’s affairs. You should thank God that Trump was rigged out of office otherwise his second tenure would have ended the Mullah regime. You guys were very very very lucky. And you should thank Biden and Obama for that.
You are not a nation of martyrdom. You are a nation of cowards full of bluster and hot air.
Most countries won’t let Israel get destroyed anyway.
I think one of the reasons Russia isn’t protecting Iran in Syria is that the Iranian leadership too cowardly. Iran left Russia to face America alone in Syria. This isn’t the sign of good aliances. Iran is willing to fight as long as only opposition rebels and ISIS are involved. But once American soldiers appear on the scene, the Iranians cowards coil inwards, retreat and try to avoid confrontation as much as possible, hoping to be ignored by the U.S.
We know that any U.S/Iran confrontation in Syria will see Moscow helping Iran. One thing I like the Russians for is that they don’t fear a fight and hardly ever betray an ally that treats them well. It would have been much more dangerous for the U.S if Russia were allied with Turkey they way they are with Iran. Putin is ready to face the U.S. anytime, but he’s lacking strong, reliable allies.
Bitch, that is not how things work – What the fuk are you on about? You think Russia didn’t know what they were getting into clown?
Iran has increase their troops/support in Syria – Iran and Russia still very much support Syrian government and fight Turk-isis supported Wahhabis in Syria. It was Syria, Russia and Iran (Kurdish/US as well) that killed most of Turk-isis Wahhabis in Syria.
“This isn’t the sign of good aliances” – Turk-isis are something else, get up to date clown – Iran and Russia signing trade and military agreements left and right. The amount of BS you saying doesn’t even make scenes, I’m not gonna lie to you.
Have you like done any history lesson about Ottoman-Turk-isis-stan? “if Russia were allied with Turkey” – Like fuking rtd let me ask you why Russia isn’t ally of Turk-isis-stan – wait, as a matter of fact why would Russia ever fuking see Turk-isis-stan as an ally again?
Turk-isis and Zionists sound so much alike… oh wait.
Lol Turkey is Ikhwan
You are a moronic supporter of cowards. Lots of your high ranking IRGC soldiers are being liquitaded in Syria, and Russia frankly doesn’t give a shit. You are as much a problem for Russia as you are useful. The Shiite tradition is cowardice for anyone who knows your history.
You idiot even brag that Iran defeated the rebels and ISIS in Syria. Your shitty brains can’t remember that Russia practically pulled your asses out of the fire in Septemper 2015. Assad+Iran+Hebollah lost 75% of Syria and were on the verge of total defeat when Soleimani ran to Russia to BEG Putin to save your POWERFUL axis of resistance. At first, Putin didn’t even want to see Soleimina.
Without Russia in Syria, you cowards would have been history now. Putin gave Iran so much and got almost nothing in return. Russia is lifting too much burden in its alliance with Iran. If it were a Turkish Russian alliance, Syria would be a totally different battlefield than it is today.
ONLY RUSSIA IS PREVENTING ASSAD’S FALL!
Assad didn’t lose most of the big cities though.
Russia and Iran’s mandate is to defeat your terrorist friends in ISIS and they are two sovereign states who are also trading partners.
They are not in Syria to wage war against Americans or Israel.
The fact that ISIS has the support of Israel, the United States and Turkey makes the situation more difficult.
But as an Islamist, you’d rather see the Middle East burning non-stop.
İran sends Afganistan and pakistani solo fighter men to syria. If you kill 1 iran sends 3 men.. if you do again iran send 9 men. This is rule. There is no way out.esrael. Esrareel can go to canada.for ever safe land. But not here. Never!
Countries like Morocco, Turkey, Sudan have normalized with Israel. Syria, Iraq and Iran are next.
Normal^ Word births in İran…2700 years ego. Hehhheej. İran is not new like esraeeel. And always win. As The history said.
Iran always win? That’s a laugh. Since the coming of our beloved prophet (SAWS), the persian empire never recovered till date from Umar’s invasion and conquest. It was a mortal blow from which persia will never recover Insha Allah. The Mahdi will end your evil Mullahs.
My one prayer now is for Trump to regain power in the U.S. In my opinion, he is the only U.S. president that will deal with the Iranian menance.
